The aim is to show the publishing activities of Estonian booksellers and to analyse the activities of Estonian booksellers and development of book production (printing) and publishing of Estonian language books. The survey is based on the research literature and on the master thesis by Signe Jantson, Book Trade in Estonia 1850–1917: Bookshops and their Owners. Up to the middle of the nineteenth century the book production and dissemination in Estonia was in the hands of Baltic German entrepreneurs and depended on the political and economic developments not only in Russia but also in Germany. The Estonian national awakening movement was preceded by the birth of Estonian national literature in the middle of the nineteenth century. In the period of the next fifty years the publication of Estonian language books increased tenfold. The second half of the nineteenth century and the beginning of the twentieth century was still favourable for the book trade: 263 new shops were opened and 283 new persons tried to start book trade businesses, but trading with books did not guarantee sufficient income and the bookshop owners were often engaged in other spheres. Among the 283 bookshop owners, 83 headed companies comprising the publishing house, the printing office, and the bookshop.","PeriodicalId":81856,"journal":{"name":"Library history","volume":"24 1","pages":"240 - 249"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1179/174581608X348122","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"65568117","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based upon a detailed empirical study of every weekly issue of the British Penny Magazine and the IllustratedLondon News (ILN) for a period of twelve months between May 1842 and May 1843, this paper argues that there was a strong contemporary awareness of this dynamism. Both The Penny Magazine and the ILN embraced the idea of preserving knowledge by themselves becoming part of the process of preservation, in a conscious effort to become objects of reference and of the historical record. In contrast to the notion that such publications were largely ephemeral products of the Victorian publishing world, it is suggested in this paper that The Penny Magazine and the ILN contributed to, and reflected the desire to see, knowledge popularly preserved and referenced as well as popularly disseminated, and that they had a substantial and significant degree of success in their editorial efforts.","PeriodicalId":81856,"journal":{"name":"Library history","volume":"24 1","pages":"200 - 207"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1179/174581608X348087","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"65567497","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Australian public libraries actively participated in the nation building project and the creation of a differentiated Australian library culture through an assertion of the values of civic reform enhanced by new professionalism and an 'inscription of nation' through library commentary and practice. While this trend diminished in the short term after Federation, in the longer term Australian libraries maintained a commitment to nationalistic values, principally through the archiving of Australian historical papers and publications, and the assimilation of Australian fiction into their predominantly British collections. This paper examines these phenomena in relation to the Public Library of Tasmania, demonstrating how the peculiarities of the local history and environment, as well as the activities of library leaders and patrons, influenced the inscription of nation in the Library. In demonstrating these assertions, this paper will utilize some of the areas of examination proposed by G. K. Peatling, specifically discursive constructions of nations articulated by library administrators and commentators, stock control, and library law, amongst others.","PeriodicalId":81856,"journal":{"name":"Library history","volume":"24 1","pages":"152 - 166"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1179/174581608X329835","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"65567625","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The role of historical subjects in library and information science (LIS) curricula has diminished in all curricula in Europe. As a result, a threat to the continuity of academic research can be observed. The books and articles on book and library history published in the Nordic and Baltic countries are difficult to access for the international community of researchers, as a majority of them have been published only in local languages. This article presents the main achievements in the history of the book, printing, publishing and the book trade, and library history. The publications presented in the article reflect the personal choice of the author. In 2006 Nordic and Baltic researchers joined the scholarly network HIBOLIRE (History of Books, Libraries and Reading). The activities of the network are financed by the Nordforsk Foundation. The aim of the network is to enhance collaboration between individual researchers and their home institutions, as well as to intensify doctoral studies and contacts between doctoral students.","PeriodicalId":81856,"journal":{"name":"Library history","volume":"24 1","pages":"105 - 116"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1179/174581608X329790","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"65567367","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Though less public and less bloody than the main conflict, it was conducted with single-minded determination, resulting in mutual recrimination and bitterness and resentment on the side of the losers. The unlikely guerrillas were the hierarchy of the Library Association, principally Arundell Esdaile, Lionel McColvin and P. S. J. Welsford (President, Honorary Secretary and Secretary, respectively) and the targets of its attacks were the allied forces of the Army and the War Office. The issues over which hostilities were conducted were the administration of the Services Central Book Depot, a military organization charged with the collection and distribution of books to the Armed Forces, and the control of the Service Libraries and Books Fund, a body set up by the Lord Mayor of London to raise funds and public donations of books. The underlying causes of the conflict were the irreconcilably different ideologies and cultural values held by the main protagonists and the ambitions of the Library Association to extend its influence and assert control over the supply of books to the Armed Forces.","PeriodicalId":81856,"journal":{"name":"Library history","volume":"24 1","pages":"167 - 188"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1179/174581608X329844","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"65567761","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
